Vonage may still be the best way to go if you make many international calls. They have a plan for $28/month that includes *free* international calls to 60 countries. I’ve been using it for a couple months now and voice quality is good – never had to hang up and redial. Saving a bunch vs. my previous plan w/AT&T.

We don’t even have a landline (old school or VOIP) at home. My wife and I just have our AT&T family plan, and it works great. I wonder what we’ll do when we have kids, though. Seems like you have to have something—maybe Google Voice would be a good option, though?

I’ve been using MagicJack for a about a year now and it has worked fine. There are some times that I have had to unhook it from the computer and plug it in again but it has been fine. Having purchased 5 years of service for $50, I’m happy.

Ooma is interesting though. Perhaps will give it a chance down the line…

We have had Ooma for over a year. Getting rid of the landline bill is fantastic. The nice thing about Ooma over MagicJack and/or Vonage is that your computer does not have to be on for Ooma to work – not to mention NO monthly charges at all!
